37

This is the LP "MGANGA!" by Tak Shindo, released by Edison International Records - CL-5000 in 1955.  
This album itself is in EXCELLENT / MINT condition. I can't find a scratch on it, just a fingerprint, and it sounded great when I played it. Label stickers  look pristine.  The sleeve is in EXCELLENT / VG condition. It has a small tear across the top edge which holds album, has some very minor wear to corners, but almost none to edges/front/back. Cover art is still vivid and B&W type/photos on back are still bold, with high contrast. Also includes paper insert.
I hold my LP's to a very high standard, and I always try to note whatever particular flaws a record may have.  My albums are sold As-Is, so please refer to My grading scale for vinyl (albums of all ages are graded on the same scale):   NEW: Unopened MINT: Just opened.  Played once or twice with no scratches or smudges.  May have specks of dust or fuzz that can be wiped right off.  (1 in 1,000 LPs qualify). EXCELLENT: May have been played a few times, but was treated with extreme care (kept in sleeve insert).  May have a couple small cosmetic issues (one or two of the following: surface scratches/smudges, light marks on label sticker or sleeve, etc.) but nothing that would effect play.  Sleeve may have some light shelf wear to edges/corners.   VERY GOOD: May have a few surface scratches, smudges, or dirt on LP but plays well, maybe a little crackling but no skips.  Sleeve may have light to moderate shelf wear to edges and/or corners, circular album imprint, ink transfer from being stored against another, darker colored album sleeve, bargain bin hole-punch, a small tear, or some writing.   GOOD: May have some a couple deeper scratches or have a lot of surface scratches.  Sleeve may have very noticeable cosmetic issues or big tears. FAIR: May have big gouges, scratched all over, or caked in dirt.  Skips often. BAD: Completely unlistenable.           If you have any questions, feel free to ask.  Shipping on vinyl is a flat rate of $5 (This included cardboard reinforcement, bubble mailer, travel expenses, and Paypal fees) within the continental US.  I will ship either USPS (LP ship Media Mail, 45's ship First Class) or FedEx for larger items.  If you request expedited shipping, extra fees apply.  If you buy more than one record, shipping is $1 for each additional album (up to 5, rates are different for expedited services).  I am willing to ship outside the continental US, provided you are willing to pay the extra shipping fees. Check out my other auctions for more rare vinyl and music related items.  Thanks for looking!
